(from Sportec Press Release) The design of the Sportec A4 RS300 betrays the character of an elegant and, at the same time, sporty vehicle. In spite of its aerodynamic efficiency, our engineers have managed to provide the vehicle with a characteristic appearance by means of modern materials and its technical design.
The sporty 4-cylinder engine spares the resources and, due to its low weight, guarantees the car’s sporty handling. Strong 300hp and a substantial torque of about 400Nm guarantee a speedy getaway – even at lower engine speeds.
A classy interior, an optimised chassis, well-dimensioned brakes and a sports exhaust system are in perfect harmony with the concept of sporty understatement.
Our Sportec RS 300 is a veritable appetiser for Audi drivers who do not want to do without the sporty characteristics of a Bi-Turbo S and a RS4. Let us convince you that economy and performance may be happily married thanks to good engineering.

Sportec Audi S4 Avant (B8)

Sportec Audi S4 Avant rivals RS4 with 425 HP
 

Here are the SWE, we try to remain unbiased when it comes to automakers and tuners, but there are a select few who we love to cover. Swiss tuner Sportec is on that A-List (so is MTM, Hennessy, and VATH). Like their RS6 Avant and B7 A4 Avant-based RS300, Sportec’s tuning package for the B8 S4 Avant not only dramatically increases power, but also offers a wide range of styling options.
 
To the meat the new S4- its 3.0L TFSI Supercharged V6. This engine has received widespread praise, and Sportec utilizes electronic wizardry to make it even better. By just tuning the ECU and adding a sport air filter, Sportec’s S4 Avant churns out 425hp and 384 lb-ft of torque. Compared to the stock output of 333hp and 325 lb-ft, this significant boost in power enables the tuned S4 to sprint to sixty in a healthy 4.5 seconds (vs. 5.1 stock). Sadly, Sportec keeps Audi’s 155 mph limiter with stage one. Considering the modest adjustments that have been made to the S4’s 3.0L TFSI, Sportec’s stage two package should produce around 500hp with an air intake, performance exhaust, and supercharger upgrades. 
 
Sportec’s S4 also benefits from a 30 mm lower ride height, an 8-piston caliper big brake system, and a wide range of 19 and 20 inch alloys. Hit the jump to see Sportec’s wide range of toys for the S4 Avant.
